green glass

Colored see-through material

Green glass is glass that has been colored green, typically through the addition of iron, chromium, or copper oxides during manufacturing.

Wine bottles, particularly those for white wines, are often made of green glass to protect contents from light damage.

The color ranges from pale seafoam to deep emerald.

Green glass also appears in decorative objects, stained glass windows, and vintage insulators prized by collectors.
